Question Maggy Questions

Does 4-5 Pounds Of Boost Sound About Right For A Stock Pulley On A 112 Radix? If I Wanted To Add A Little More Boost,whats The Next Size Pulley?what Else Would I Have Too Do Besides Retune?

yeah, 5lbs is about right. How are you measuring boost, from a gage? You just got it on and already want more boost? lmao, you are in trouble, boost addict! What size pulley do you have now, a 3.4"? I found the drop to 3.2" to be very satisfying.
You might want to think about methanol if you are going to go into the 7-9lbs range.

nelson used to have diffrent pulleys and retune while there for more power...i went from stock pulley to 3.1 pulley that netted me 8 psi on a 5.3 so you will prolly end up with a 3.2 pulley...
